Designing for structural, social and political viability in national-scale systemic interventions

Foote, Jeff; Nicholas, Graeme; Midgley, Gerald

Abstract

First paragraph:
This chapter contains methodological reflections on a participatory design approach undertaken in New Zealand to develop a national response to family violence pre‑vention. Family violence significantly affects the wellbeing of individuals, families and communities, especially children, women and Māori (the indigenous people of New Zealand) (Gear etal., 2021). The New Zealand government spends approxi‑mately NZ$1.5 billion annually on various programmes and initiatives designed to reduce or prevent family violence, including intimate partner violence, child abuse and neglect, elder abuse, inter‑sibling abuse and parental abuse (Carne etal., 2019).
